Yun Bilu tightened the scarf around her neck as she avoided Chu Xin’s hand. “Nooo, Chu Xin, my great elder sister, don’t! Please don’t!” She widened her eyes pitifully as she pleaded.

What Chu Xin found it hardest to stand was this look from Bilu. She tapped Yun Bilu on the forehead and said, “You lying girl. I really can’t do anything to you. If you showed this gaze to your Young Master Huang, he’d probably pluck the moon and stars for you.”

At that very moment, Xiao Nan and Xiao Huan came back after taking a shower. “Hey, stop dawdling around. You don’t want to be late for class.”

Yun Bilu heaved a sigh of relief and followed the others to class happily. While she was on her way there, she suddenly remembered to call Bai Yaoyao. She wanted to be assured that Bai Yaoyao was fine, so as soon as the call connected, she piped up, “Elder Sister Yaoyao, did anything spark when you were together with Mr. Soldier?”

At that moment, Bai Yaoyao was eating at the dining room with Duan Yanhao sitting opposite her. She sneaked a glance at him and saw his indifferent expression—he probably couldn’t hear anything.

Bai Yaoyao covered her mouth as she replied, “Don’t let your thoughts run wild. My period came yesterday.”

Yun Bilu became anxious, so she couldn’t help but raise her voice. “What? Your period came? Elder Sister Yaoyao, I have to go find you. You have to take good care of yourself, okay? Your period coming means that you need to rest well. You shouldn’t drink cold water and get tired…”

Hearing Yun Bilu’s screeching voice from the phone, beads of sweat started forming on Bai Yaoyao’s forehead. When she saw Duan Yanhao’s eyebrows twitching slightly, her grip on her cell phone tightened. She suspected that he heard everything.

Bai Yaoyao looked apologetically at Duan Yanhao before moving to the side to continue talking with Yun Bilu. She had to reassure the latter numerous times before she finally calmed down.

After hanging up the call, Bai Yaoyao observed Duan Yanhao from her peripheral view. Ever since that incident in the bathroom earlier, there was an unusual atmosphere between the two of them.

The next day, even when she was eating breakfast in front of Duan Yanhao, she was slightly nervous and wasn’t as casual as she was before.

It seemed as though the servant yesterday told Duan Yanhao that she was about to leave, so he rushed back home. But other than having an unpleasant expression, he did not say anything.

Bai Yaoyao stared at Duan Yanhao as she slowly fell into a trance.

Duan Yanhao, who was scooping some soup, saw the worried expression on Bai Yaoyao’s face—one that looked sorrowful.

His face twitched a little as he said, “If you don’t eat, the soup will get cold. You shouldn’t drink anything cold when you have your period, right?”
